Every wave of technological revolution is not just a simple update of tools. It opens up new business worlds and then triggers the next wave of innovation like dominoes. You will find that technological growth is a self-reinforcing cycle—more innovation leads to more opportunities, and the returns become increasingly significant.
But what’s most interesting here is the operating logic of the bubble. In simple terms, it’s two things: a good story plus real money. Looking at the internet over the past few decades, every boom repeats the same pattern—technological breakthroughs → frantic investment → market frenzy → bubble burst. The stage changes, the lights change, the actors and props also change, but one thing about human nature never changes: greed drives us forward, while fear makes us hurriedly escape.
This cycle seems to perpetually repeat. It’s just that each time, participants imagine they can break the rules.

nah this is just copium with extra steps. we've seen this exact playbook run like what, five times already? tech breakthrough → money printer goes brrrr → everyone thinks *they're* different → inevitable collapse. rinse and repeat. the real vulnerability isn't the tech, it's the human pattern matching failure baked into our dna. we never learn, just rebrand.

The story sounds good, money comes quickly, and the bubble inflates. I'm tired of this routine; every time they say this time is different, but it turns out to be the same.

Honestly, we've seen this logic too many times, but when it happens to us, it's easy to get confused.
Every time we say this time is different, but the result is still the same.

Basically, it's like hot potato; we all bet that we're not the last one.

That's correct, but the ones who truly make money are never those who break the rules, but those who see the rules clearly and still dare to all in.

It's the same old tired cycle again. The explanation is correct, but it's getting boring to hear. The key is how not to get cut during the next bubble.

Stories plus real money, I think isn't this just gambling? It's just wearing a technical disguise.

At the end of the day, it's still the same thing: if the story sells well, you can raise money; with the money, you keep hyping the story. Rinse and repeat.

Honestly, we've seen this cycle so many times before. The story sounds good, but in the end, it's still that group of people harvesting the profits, while another group cries as they sell off their holdings in panic.

Honestly, no one can break this cycle. We're all just gambling on whether we're the lucky one.
Entering during the storytelling phase or running before it collapses all depends on luck and timing.
If you didn't make a profit in the last round, here it comes again with the same tricks.
